that the return OF the flags would be ''the

would promote a better sentiment in the

That's all nonsense Why did you not
keep them when you had them in your pos

not lose them again if We return them Ia

A California gentleman. in discussing the
presidential problem for lSsS. asks-''ls 1t
asking too much of Ohio 10 stand back at
this tme?" and alleges that 1.-THE great west
is very much enthused for James q. Blaine
in preference to Sherman" The Toledo
Commercial pronounces this to be "a very
broad statement" and denies that there is
any real antagOniSm in Ohio between the
friends of Blaine and Sherman. adding
this:
As for Ohio. Is she in the habit of
standing back" al anv time when her
strength is necessary 10 achieve republican
success? So far from it that if James q
Blaine should BE- the nominee of the
national convention Ohio and John Sherman
"""id be in the foremost rank of his sup
porters.
II John Sherman should he the nominee.
there i no Reason 10 suppose that the great
west and the friends of Blaine everywhere
would not be- enthused for hun a. a man
whose incumbency Of the presidential Office
NOuid reflect the highest credit and honor
upon the republican party. No one doubts
that Blaine would. under such circum
stances. exert all his power and influence
With hearty good will to achieve victory
for the republican party and its nominee.

A Big Failure.

1t seems that the attempt of the city to
light the street lamps by so-called day
labor is not proving a success. Com
plants are coming in from all quarters,
and much discomfort is expressed by par
ties in various portions of the city as to
the unsatisfactory service at the present
time. On Sunday night at 8 o'clock not
a single lamp was burning north of Broad
between Ninth and Fourteenth (or Col
lege) streets. At ~ o'clock lamps had
been lit at the following points:
One at the corner of Tenth and Mar
shall one at the corner of Eleventh and
Clay lin front of the house of the chair
man of the Light Committee); one at the
corner of Twelfth and Clay, and one in
front OF the Medical College. There are
between twenty-five and thirty lamps in
this district, and there is no reason why
they should not be lit promptly-espe-
cially on Sunday nights, when there are
so many people on the streets, going to
and coming from church.

OUR WORKINGMEN.
Richmond at the BrickIayers' Unioi

Richmond at the BrIcklayers Union.
At the recent International Union Of
the bricklayers, held in Washington, this
city was represented by Mr.. j. Richard
Green, president, and Mr.. B. s Ragland
vice president Of the Richmond Union.
These gentlemen took an active part in
the deliberations OF the body. Much
business was transacted Of interest to the
craft, but not of general public import
ance. The sessions were secret, but much
Of il has been made public. They met
as workingmen looking to the interest of
the whole country, and there was no trea-
son or stratagem plots. They believe
that the good of the whole country de-
ponds upon all being united and laboring
for the common welfare.
Messrs. Green and Ragland were on
several committees, and received many
attentions. They were highly gratified
with the trip, and with the good work
accomplished Mr.. Green is a repre-
sentative bricklayer Of Manchester, and
Mr.. Ragland of Richmond, and no better
men could have been selected as repre-
sentatiyes in the special functions with
which they were accredited.
About the most important action taken
by the union was the establishment of
nine hours as a days work, and the
declaration that the union was an indie
pendent organization, and would work
with no others.

Nearly a Smash-Ip.

About o'clock yesterday coal cart
pulled by two mules was coming down
Main street. When near the corner OF
Twelfth the hind mule slipped and fell.
The leading mule did not stop, but con-
tinued to pull; and in a short time he
succeeded in raising the fallen animal to
his feet. But in 50 doing the swingletree
became tangled in such a manner as to
make the driver lose all control over his
team. There being a very heavy grade at
this point the wagon and mules went down
the street at a very rapid rate. Between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets were
standing G. horse and buggy, the property
of Charles Selden, superintendent of the
street railway The driver attempted to
stop his team but to no effect, and the
wagon struck the buggy squarely, knock
ing it completely over on its side.
Luckily the horse did not run, so beyond
a little scraping of the paint no damage
was done.

Fires Sunday and Yesterday.

About 5:15 Sunday afternoon the tug
horse boy on the Manchester railway line
noticed a quantity of trash in the area
of f. b. Spence & Sons in flames. He
Immediately secured two buckets of wa
ter from CARRIERS stable and extinguished
the flames at once The fire was re-
ported to the Tenth-street hose company
who, TO make sure that no fire was left,
turned on plug stream for few min
utes The damage was only tritling.
AT o'clock yesterday morning bright
blaze was seen in the direction of the
northern end of Second street. TO par
ties in the central and lower portions of
the city it gave the impression that a
large contlagration was in progress in the
northern part of our city. The fire was
in reality about mile from the corpora
tion line, in the vicinity of st. Mary
Cemetery. 1t was the dwelling of ne
gro family.
An alarm was turned in from Box IA,
Tenth and Byrd at 1895 yesterday morn
ing. The paper mill fire had again broke
out in fresh place. The flames were
extinguished by the Tenth-street hose
company before the rest of the depart
ment arrived.
At 9:25 last night another alarm was
turned in from Box IA. This was also
caused by the reminding of the flames
at the paper mill Several streams were
put upon the fire, which. after several
hours, apparently subdued the flames.

MUSIC IN THE AIR.
Anniversary of the Richmond Musical
Protective Union.

Anniversary of the Richmond Musical
Protective Union.
The first anniversary of this union
was held last night at Krause's Hotel at
1890 o'clock. As a large number of
the members are attached to the Mozart
orchestra an earlier hour was i'm
practicable. 1t was about II o'clock
before the members and guests arrived
and some time after before the festivities
eventuated in all their beauty and glory.
The lateness of the hour prevents full
justice being done the occasion, but there
was music in the air.
From the little piccolo to the piano
grande there was a rush Of melody, and
the evening was one of great pleasure,
Krause acted his part well, and the feast
prepared was fitting one in every
respect.
Music is not the writer's forte, and he
can only say that in addition to the sub
stantials there was mann of melody that
has rarely been excelled The very eff
cient committee were Messrs II. T. Laube,
John Baseler, and Richard Wagner. The
union is composed of excellent material,
and while they are quiet and law-abiding
citizens, there is no doubt but what they
will yet make noise il the world.

A Great Improvement.

The building on the s2G;hside of Broad
street, near First, known as the Skating
Rink, has been greatly improved. Messrs.
Cohen Bros has had it reiiitted and re-
novated. 4 new stage has been erected,
a new curtain put up, and the walls beau
tifully papered. Messrs Cohen Bros.
are determined that in the future it shall
be used for such exhibitions as are elevat-
ing and instructive. That section of the
city has always needed hall for con-
certs, lectures, fairs, festivals, and similar
entertainments The newly-reftted hall
seems to ill the bill, and it is hoped that
the enterprise of its owners will be re-
warded. 1t will be inaugurated tonight
by the opening of the japanese exhibition.
